DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Material and Finishes
The fabric is 91% recycled polyester and 9% spandex. It offers four-way stretch. A PFOA and PFOS-free water-repellent treatment limits water absorption. Welded seams are strategically placed in areas of highest friction. It features a flat lace closure and a welded side zip pocket with drainage and a key loop.
Between the Squareflex and the Gambas
The Haapiti sits right in the middle of the Manera boardshort range. It's more technical than the Gambas, thanks to its welded seams and zippered pocket. It's simpler than the seamless Cocotex Squareflex. Like the other two, it features an 18-inch mid-thigh cut.
